Mr. S.M. Sharfaraz Hossain

“During my academic journey, one of the most impactful instructors I had the privilege of learning from was Nadia Chowdhury ma’am, our English instructor. Her classes were not just about grammar or literature. They were about real-world communication. She brought the classroom to life with practical sessions like public speaking, presentations, and interactive discussions that pushed us out of our comfort zones and into confident communication.
One of the most valuable aspects of her teaching was the feedback she provided after each presentation. It wasn’t just about what went wrong, it was about how to grow, how to improve, and how to carry oneself with clarity and purpose. Those lessons have stayed with me long after the course ended, and I’ve applied them repeatedly in my professional life.
Nadia ma’am’s classes were a blessing. The skills and confidence I gained from her sessions had a lasting impact on me. I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity to learn from her.”
